# Array (list of objects)

## Overview

In order to use an array of objects field, add `children` and `type: InputType.Array` to your `FieldConfig`.

It is only used for objects, if you want other arrays like `text` please use `InputType.MultiText`

```jsx
children: { fields: FieldConfig[] },
type: InputType.Array,
```

## Interface

```typescript
interface FieldConfig {
  key: string;
  type: InputType.Array;
  children: { fields: FieldConfig[] };
  label?: string;
  isDisabled?: boolean;
  isRequired?: boolean;
  defaultValue?: any;
}
```

* `key`: A unique identifier for the field.
* `type`: The type of input to use for the field, as specified by the `InputType` enumeration.
* [`children`](/api-reference/field-config.md#children): A nested set of fields.
* `label`: (optional) The label to display for the field.
* `isDisabled`: (optional) A boolean value indicating whether the field should be disabled.
* `isRequired`: (optional) A boolean value indicating whether the field is required.
* `defaultValue`: (optional) The default value for the field.

An array of a nested set of fields for use with `InputType.Array` fields. This allows you to add, edit and delete multiple objects in an array.

**Properties**

* [`children`](/api-reference/fields/nested-children.md): The nested children configuration, [view docs](/api-reference/field-config.md#children)

## Example

Here is an example of how the `children` property can be used in a `FieldConfig` object:

```javascript
const passengersFormConfig: FormConfig = {
  fields: [
    {
      key: "passengers",
      label: "Passengers",
      type: "array",
      children: {
        fields: [
          {
            key: "email",
            label: "Email",
            type: "text",
            isRequired: true,
          },
          {
            key: "first_name",
            label: "First Name",
            type: "text",
            isRequired: true,
          },
          {
            key: "last_name",
            label: "Last Name",
            type: "text",
            isRequired: true,
          },
        ],
      },
    },
  ],
};
```

In this example, the passengersFormConfig object represents a group of fields that are used to add, edit and delete multiple passengers to the form.

## Example Output

```json
{
  "passengers": [
    {
      "email": "john@tutim.io",
      "first_name": "John",
      "last_name": "Doe"
    },
    {
      "email": "may@tutim.io",
      "first_name": "May",
      "last_name": "Smith"
    }
  ]
}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.tutim.io/api-reference/fields/array.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
